'''THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF PYRUVATE DEHYDROGENASE E1 BOUND TO THE PERIPHERAL SUBUNIT BINDING DOMAIN OF E2'''
===THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF PYRUVATE DEHYDROGENASE E1 BOUND TO THE PERIPHERAL SUBUNIT BINDING DOMAIN OF E2===




==Overview==
<!--
Thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) is used as a cofactor in many key metabolic enzymes. We present evidence that the ThDPs in the two active sites of the E1 (EC 1.2.4.1) component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex communicate over a distance of 20 angstroms by reversibly shuttling a proton through an acidic tunnel in the protein. This "proton wire" permits the co-factors to serve reciprocally as general acid/base in catalysis and to switch the conformation of crucial active-site peptide loops. This synchronizes the progression of chemical events and can account for the oligomeric organization, conformational asymmetry, and "ping-pong" kinetic properties of E1 and other thiamine-dependent enzymes.
The line below this paragraph, {{ABSTRACT_PUBMED_15514159}}, adds the Publication Abstract to the page
(as it appears on PubMed at http://www.pubmed.gov), where 15514159 is the PubMed ID number.
